Question

a video game is on sale for 25% off. the origanal price is $42. what is the discount? what is the sale price?

Answer 1

Hi,
The amount of the discount would be the original price multiplied by .25 which is the same as 25%

Answer 2

The sale price would be the og price minus the amount you got for the price x .25

Answer 3

Another way to do this would be to say the original price of the object was 100% and take off the 25% percent for the sale. So the new price would be 75% of the original price. So your set up would look like 42(.75)=sale price

Answer 4

Does this help?

Answer 5

yes thanks :)
